Well, I will admit it I got stranded on a sand bar when the tide went out, boat slammed hard with the waves, after dinner came back to the boat and found it hit so hard it, busted the rudder up through the top floor of the deck, the botttom of not so sure yet will have to investigate further, but I have splintered wood and broken fiberglass at th etop and she,s taking on some water.
I am thinking about the repair and would like to motorize the rudder to get rid of the dam, mount in the middle of my 2 ft wide deck right in front of the entrance hatch,like to find a motor with a forward and revese gear to asume the left right position but need to be able to controll the speed of it, and create a stop limit.
any suggestions or does some one have a close set-up,as such now?
Like to upgrade since I biffed it up, otherwise will just patch below and make a aluminum plate to repair the rudder mount.
